May 27, 2008 Bottle@SpontaneousWeekend08. Of course it has all the stuff you’d expect in a IIPA. But it’s there in a aggressive yet friendly way. Not to grassy or too bitter. Just well balanced.

Mar 23, 2006 Draft at Pizza Port Solana Beach: Amber, intense hop nose, columbus and grapefruit, pale malts. The flavor is brisk, sweet and bitter. Loads of each. Nice IPA in the California style, better on tap than cask.

Jul 31, 2007 Bottle from Capone’s. Turbid orangy copper pour with 1-finger off-white head and excellent lacing even through the repour. The aroma is huge; a mix of heavy hops, pineapple, mango, tangerine, honeydew, and caramel malt. This is perhaps the greatest beer aroma I’ve ever experienced, perhaps even rivaling Dreadnaught. The flavor is big hops and fruit, with a huge malt bill, and notes of tangerine, pineapple, mango, black pepper, and melon, in roughly that order of intensity. The palate is dense, complex, very well balanced. A smidgen more malt here would have made this a Perfecto Robusto. As it stands, it’s one of the best IIPAs, and best beers, I’ve ever quaffed.
